The present invention relates to novel pyrimidinyloxyalkanamide derivatives and agricultural or horticultural fungicides containing the same as active ingredients.

Japanese Patent Application, First Publication, No. Sho 63-132867 discloses that aryloxycarboxylic acid derivatives have fungicidal activities. In the previous application, compounds having 2-pyrimidinyl group without any substituents in the aryl group are disclosed; however, they do not exhibit adequate fungicidal activities. In addition, there is no disclosure of compounds having 4-pyrimidinyl group with substituents.

Recently, conventional fungicides may not exhibit adequate fungicidal activities because of the emergence of resistant fungi after repeated use of the fungicides. In addition, as well as because of environmental problems, it is desired to provide novel fungicides which can efficiently control harmful fungi even at low concentrations. The present invention provides novel pyrimidinyloxyalkanamide derivatives exhibiting superior fungicidal activities.

Therefore, the present inventors have synthesized various novel pyrimidinyloxyalkanamide derivatives and have carried out extensive research in connection with their effects on the biological activities of fungi. As a result, the present inventors have found that the novel compounds according to the present invention have wide spectrum of fungicidal activity, and exhibit excellent fungicidal activities with regard to rice blast and the like, while at the same time do not hinder desirable plant growth.

Test on the Preventive Effects for Rice Blast (Pyricularia oryzae)

Paddy rice seeds (variety: Aichi Asahi) were sown at a rate of approximately 15 grains each in porcelain pots having a diameter of 7 cm. The seeds were allowed to germinate and grow for 2 to 3 weeks in a greenhouse. A wettable powder prepared according to Formulation Example 2 was diluted with water to a concentration of 500 ppm of the active ingredient, and subsequently the obtained aqueous preparation was sprayed at a rate of 10 ml per pot on the rice seedlings at their 4-leaf stage. After being dried in the air, the seedlings were inoculated by spraying a conidiospore suspension of rice blast fungi (Pyricularia oryzae) and immediately placed in a moist chamber at 25°C for 24 hours and subsequently in a greenhouse. On the fifth day after the inoculation, the number of lesions on the fourth leaf was counted. The controlling activity was calculated according to Equation 1. The evaluation results obtained according to the Evaluation Standard shown in Table 17 are shown in Tables 18 to 21. ##EQU1##

Test on the Submerged Application Effects on Rice Blast (Pyricularia oryzae)

Paddy rice seedlings (variety: Aichi Asahi) at their 1.5-leaf stage were transplanted at 4 locations at a rate of 3 seedlings per location each in white porcelain pots having a diameter of 9 cm. The seedlings were allowed to germinate and grow in a greenhouse. When the seedlings grew to the 2.5-leaf stage, wettable powders prepared according to Formulation Example 2 were applied into the irrigation water in the pot so that the concentration of the active ingredient was at 300 g per 10 ares. After 10 days from the treatment, the seedlings were inoculated by spraying a conidospore suspension of rice blast fungi (Pyricularia oryzae) and immediately placed in a moist chamber at 25°C for 24 hours and subsequently in a greenhouse so as to induce an attack of the disease. On the fifth day after the inoculation, the number of lesions on the leaf which was in the most advanced stage of development at the time of the inoculation was counted. The controlling activity was calculated according to Equation 1. The evaluation results obtained according to the Evaluation Standard shown in Table 17 are shown in Tables 22 and
